pope benedict was so shocked by the allegations, he decided to resign. it follows with uncharacteristically strong language saying these "unverifiable or completely false news stories caused serious damage to persons and institutions and are an attempt to use public opinion to influence the cardinals' free will in the election of a new pope." cardinal depaulis will take part at that election in the conclave and stresses caution. we cannot say things that are only guesswork or imagination are true, he told me. these are not true, and these allegations only serve to create a climate of division that helps no one. but cnn vatican analyst john allen sniffs some truth in the allegations. >> to date, none of us have actually seen the secret report delivered by the three cardinals to benedict xvi, so it's impossible to say precisely what it contains. on the other hand, the core claim of this story that the cardinals looked into the possibility that there might be a network of gay clergy inside the vatican who were vulnerable to pressure, to me, that passes the
